Objectives of the Course To provide a critical awareness of what art means in life in different contexts. To provide an interdisciplinary "first contact" experience with pattern applications.
Course Content This course encompasses practical studies aimed at enabling students to produce advanced-level drawings using various drawing materials and techniques. While perspective, proportion, composition, and three-dimensional form rendering are reinforced through classical artist studies, students’ creative expressive capacities are expanded through explorations of alternative surfaces, oil paint applications on paper, mixed-media techniques, story–drawing, music–drawing, and interdisciplinary practices. Throughout the process, both individual and collaborative projects support the development of technical proficiency, creativity, and problem-solving skills.
Course Methods and Techniques Explanation of what drawing etude, sketch and copying are, information about application methods. Pencil study applications. Perceiving the concept of study, drawing and sketching with this application.

Weekly Detailed Course Contents
WeekTopicsStudy MaterialsMaterials
1 The scope of Free Drawing II is introduced, and students determine the creative expressive approaches and thematic directions they will develop throughout the semester. Ratio-Proportion Information Visual Design Elements and Principles (Vedat Özsoy, Abdullah Ayaydın)
2 Explorations of alternative surfaces begin through drawing experiments on cardboard, kraft paper, textile materials and recycled surfaces.
3 Technical instruction is given on producing drawings with oil paint on paper, exploring the interaction between line and tonal mass.
4 Mixed-media applications (charcoal–pastel–ink) are used to create diverse textures and enhance surface richness.
5 Creative expression is expanded through spontaneous and free-form line production exercises.
6 The relationship between storytelling and drawing is explored by producing narrative-based drawings inspired by a short text.
7 An experimental process on music–drawing interaction is conducted, examining how rhythm, tempo and emotional intensity translate into line.
8 A midterm critique is held to discuss students’ works in terms of technique, expression and creativity.
9 Midterm Exams
10 Large-scale surface drawings are produced focusing on dynamic line exploration and movement-based compositions.
11 A collective drawing project is initiated, allowing students to collaboratively produce a shared large-surface artwork.
12 Students continue individual projects, deepening their chosen techniques, surfaces and personal expressive approaches.
13 Produced drawings are organized into a portfolio-ready selection, focusing on sequencing and presentation standards.
14 Students present their final drawing series and the creative approach they developed throughout the semester for evaluation.
